Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix 2008 Poster PVGP

2008 Poster - The 2008 Marque was all Italian automobiles and the 26th annual poster was brilliantly illustrated by Mark Bender, who also created our 2003 poster. All Italian Marques were featured including Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Fiat, Lancia, Lamborghini & Maserati.

Our Historic Races at BeaveRun celebrated their 5th anniversary. This kick-off weekend gets better each year thanks to our friends at VRG. Speaking of anniversaries, the VSCCA, the group that organizes our races at Schenley Park, marked their 50th year during the second weekend with a special driver's reception at the Carnegie Museum.

Pittsburgh Steeler legend Rocky Bleier kicked off our year long tribute to founder and friend Myron Cope who passed away in February, 2008. Yellow t-shirts were given to all volunteers and there was a special Terrible Towel waving parade during our opening ceremonies. A severe storm dropped in late Sunday afternoon at Schenley Park but did little to dampen the spirits of another huge crowd. $171,000 was raised for charity - our 4th straight record.
